Mine just came in yesterday and I was legit blown away with the quality and minimalistic design! I don’t find its matte screen matte enough actually. Ironically it’s kind of reflective.
@@bren.r yo I am pretty sure you will enjoy this panel man. This panel is 100% kind of glossy but not as much as those QD-OLED kind. IMO its the right amount.
Thanks for the video! Mine comes in tomorrow. I'm really excited to play some single player 4k games and some multiplayer at either 1080 or 4k. I can't wait to try it out. This will be my first OLED experience.
The edifier still a sound a little better and get louder, but the pixel sound gives it a different experience. Wish there was a way to integrate it with current speakers 🔊
4k resolution input latency is 31 when you game from mouse system monitor at full hd only 19msec.. plus 480hz reduces even for 2 msec. Almost 17msec... gaming.. So if u play at 31 system lag u can not be better in fps games vs good players with low end monitor. And you use gamepad.. there is no difference from 120hz to 1000hz with gamepad... becasuse gamepad has no movement like mouse its old style gaming but top players in the word using mouse.
To properly show how good a matte coating works, you need to shine the light on objects in front of the monitor instead of shining a light directly on it. it’s designed to distort reflections, not light.
@@bren.r With a glossy display so close to your face, you’ll see your face and everything behind you that has any light cast on it. A matte display blurs that reflection so it’s less distracting. You with me? So a better showcase it would be to film the reflections of the monitor with the room lit up behind it, and compare it to a glossy screen. Not a lamp shining directly at the screen, showing how blurry it makes the lamp. You understand now?
Yeah but by shining a lamp directly at the screen, you can clearly see how the matte coating diffuses it. Between the glossy, semi-gloss, and this matte coating, there's a huge difference. Plus, I also show how light can affect the black levels of this monitor, for example, on QD-OLED, you can see purple tint. I also show different angles with sunlight hitting it as well
I just got this monitor replaced my samsung ark. This monitor is sick. The matte is no where as bad as the matte on other stuff. Very nice. Great review. Do ypu think there is a better monitor on the market?
Are you able to manually enable the 480 hz with a different resolution on nividia control panel or any other application? Or is it only a preset on the monitor stuck at 1080p?
Why would you play on Ultra Performance DLSS? The difference between it and Quality mode in Modern Warfare is barely any different in terms of FPS, but the visuals are dramatically worse. You can still achieve 200+ with the 4090 using Quality mode or worse case scenario in performance mode, which is still internal 1080p and scales to 4K quite nicely. Ultra performance is 720p internal resolution...
I only play on that mode for the purpose of achieving over 240+ so I can test out how smooth 240FPS runs. It’s not what I would normally play on, if anything I like DLAA with just Frame Generation. You’re right that it looks worse which is why even on 1080P mode, just to hit 480+ I had to go minimum + DLAA Ultra Performance 🤢
I bought this monitor and love it. My only question is on the back of the monitor it looks like there’s two LED strips down the back (kind of transparent plastic). If so, how do you turn it on or control it?
Yes those are RGB lights on the back. You can turn it on in the settings under general > hexagon lighting 11:37 is where you can see the hexagon lighting 🔥
@@MakeSh00t please provide a reputable source for this, I can't find anything stating that with equal refresh rate the technology of hmdi 2.1 would have more inherent latency than DP 1.4.
@@FIREWOLFTECH yesh i think so. I wanna buy this monitor too, but i want to connect my speakers to the usb hub in the back. Is it possible to? How did you connected your speakers?
Those are probably peak HDR brightness levels at 2%, and some of those TVs are very expensive. I think the brightness not being as high is because they’re monitors that are meant for gaming and productivity, so they have to ensure there longevity
Full disclosure! These expensive monitors wont make you game better. They are marketed for those who like expensive hardware to boast about. The games we play are all old remastered games from 2 decades ago. 16 directional, robotic old remastered games with shiny new hardware. Can you afford a 4k pc and a 2k monitor to play games from 2004 and boast about FPS?
Bro who hurt your feelings 😅 lol No one said these will make you game better, but it definitely would give you a competitive advantage over others who play on lower refresh rate and input TV/monitors. Expensive monitors aren’t just for people who like expensive hardware, but for those looking to have a better visual experience whether that’s gaming, movies, or productivity
@@FIREWOLFTECH My feelings? So you are a psychologist too? Where do i start Doc? Quit lying ...Bro, these monitors do very little for "competitive advantage" outside of more vibrant colors and of course FPS. The games themselves have not been optimized outside of visuals. Same robotic, restrictive movements that drives players to purchase aiming devices to correct their disadvantage, even when using these high end expensive monitors. Of course they are good movies, but so are high end TVs that cost as much.
Listen bro … If you think higher FPS, Refresh Rates, Lower Response Times, and Lower Input Lags don’t give you a competitive advantage then I hope you stick with a 60Hz refresh rate 720P monitor so you can boast how these “expensive” monitors are worthless. If sponsorship wasn’t a factor, You think in a competitive esports games they would allow someone to play with a 480Hz monitor vs everyone else using a 144Hz monitor ? They won’t, but if you ran the event you’d be like “iT DoeSnt MaTteR”
@@FIREWOLFTECH it's the one i have, i agree with you, that it does need more vertical resolution, hopefully Samsung will come out with gen 3 panel for the new g9 49inch
Mine just came in yesterday and I was legit blown away with the quality and minimalistic design! I don’t find its matte screen matte enough actually. Ironically it’s kind of reflective.
Thanks for sharing ! It really is a nice display and most shouldn't find the matte an issue 🔥
I actually prefer glossy so reading your comment, I’m considering this panel despite it being matte.

🔥 Awesome ! How is it so far ?
Got mine ordered today. Hoping it arrives soon
Im hoping for you too 🔥
why when u watching Netflix in TV its look like 60fps but in PC Monitor, it looks 30 fps . It's smoother in Oled TV. Can anyone help me ???
Had an order on one this Monday but LG stated they are back ordered. Bout to cop from best buy
Looks amazing
It do 🤩
I can confirm! It's amazing and beautiful. 480 is a bit blurry tho
You got a dope setup bro. I’ve been thinking of getting that monitor.
Thanks, my setup came a long way lol
This is a great monitor 🔥 I'll be reviewing more OLED monitors soon
Brah, looking at the "add to cart" button, make my hands feel like they're melting. lol
😅 the struggle
How do you think the sound compares to the edifier g2000 you have there?
Great review, you covered it all 🔥

I JUST DONT GET WHY THE MONITOR DOESNT JUST GO TO 1440P 360HZ
I think they really wanted the 480 selling point

It doesn’t have 1440p?
It does
Does the 480hz mode work with vrr gsync etc? Or is that only limited to the 240hz mode
Yes VRR/G-Sync will work in either mode
lets go
Lesssgoo 🔥
How does it respond to mac?
Are you using DisplayPort or hdmi with your pc. My monitor is coming in Monday.
hdmi has higher input lag vs DP. Depends what you use VRR HDR 240hz or 480 hz.. But difference is max 2msec.
I’m using DisplayPort
Thanks I really enjoy your reviews

How did you connect this monitor to external ports?
are you referring to the USB HUB in the back ?
@@FIREWOLFTECH yesh i think so. I wanna buy this monitor too, but i want to connect my speakers to the usb hub in the back. Is it possible to? How did you connected your speakers?
does this monitor support HDMI arc or Earc ?
No HDMI ARC or EARC.
I know the G80SD has it
It is out of stock, when can I buy this monitor?
They usually restock frequently so I recommend checking daily just in case
Many lg oleds are above 900-1000 nits how this is made till 400?
Those are probably peak HDR brightness levels at 2%, and some of those TVs are very expensive.
I think the brightness not being as high is because they’re monitors that are meant for gaming and productivity, so they have to ensure there longevity
@@FIREWOLFTECH so what monitor or tv are you using for personal use ?
What monitor arm is this?
Its the WALI single monitor arm, I think its under $50
No passive cooling?
No
